Oh my gosh, that's awful. Must have been a painful wait too. Hope she make a full and fast recovery, that's a bloody big fall. Cheers xxx

A helicopter ride and now she is at the Alfred getting operated on today!
Not a nice time over Xmas for her and our families as we celebrate all coming together. We are very grateful that she will heal and it could have been a lot worse.
Everyone please stay safe and enjoy Xmas! |
Geezus, doesn't do things by halves does she? That's a fair fall. No jokes for her for a couple of weeks, in this case laughter would NOT be the best medicine.
Shit timing but as you say, could have been a lot worse. Hope that's your measure of bad luck for Xmas out of the road and the rest is all good.

Oh she doesn't do things by half then Ken!
True it could have been a lot worse - she is in good hands at the Alfred.
Enjoy the day the best you can

it's sad that George Michael died, it's sad that Carrie Fisher died but it is unbearably sad that a 9 yr old boy just looking at Xmas lights with his family has died courtesy of a drunk speeding dckwad!!

Agreed. Now that I know intimately how devastating the loss of someone you know & love hurts, celebrity deaths, while sad, pale into insignificance in comparison. Especially someone like that innocent little boy who did nothing wrong or to deserve it  |

If you start from the reasonable proposition that, however stupid and culpable he was, he probably didn't mean to kill their child, there's little reason to hold a grudge. He should certainly receive his punishment in the usual way and he should probably never be allowed to drive, ever again. |

Amazing parents, not sure I'd be so forgiving.
He will probably get a slap on the wrist, and lose his licence for a ridiculously short time.
RIP little fella xxx
